Abstract

Using narrative, this article argues that in approaching any ethical choice, it is more important to operate within each of Hartman’s three dimensions of value than it is to consider which dimension carries the highest worth. Fractal geometry offers a good analogy for how all three dimensions must be used in concert if moral integrity is to be maintained. The author questions whether the current hierarchy of value is essential to value science and suggests that Hartman’s goal of organizing good can be better served by attending to all three dimensions than by focusing on any one dimension.
